Alessi Colombina Salt and Pepper Castors

Alessi Colombina Salt and Pepper Castors Review



Alessi Colombina Salt and Pepper Castors Feature

  • "Colombina" salt and pepper shakers in bone china designed by Doriana O. Mandrelli and Massimiliano Fuksas, 2007
  • Pebble-like pieces light in weight
  • Hand wash only; set of 2 pieces in gift box
  • ALESSI collection
  • 2 inches wide, 2 inches long, 1 inch high
At first glance, the “Colombina collection” is a lovely design, characterized by a sculptural approach: elegant, new, and pleasing plates, containers and cups made from different materials and in different colours. Actually, if we look closer, a knowledge of table rituals appears in the Fuksas design. One item contains another, or they can easily be placed side by side like a welcoming pile of petals that can be leafed through one by one according to the guests’ preferences and, naturally, the dinner options.
